Harry Potter Parties !


After 10 years, the saga of "Harry Potter" is expected to draw to a close with Saturday’s release of "Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows,” but you can enjoy one last potter party this Friday night at two of Savannah's largest bookstores.

Barnes & Noble at Oglethorpe Mall is having a "Midnight Magic Costume Party" at 8 p.m. Friday. The store will have a costume contest, a potion demonstration and live animals from Oatland Island. They will be giving away 300 Harry Potter wands and old Harry Potter movies will be shown inside the mall.

At 9 p.m. Books-A-Million at 8108 Abercorn Street will celebrate with a costume contest, a magician, trivia, crafts and face painting. Both locations will have events up until one minute after midnight when they can begin selling the book.
